Performance

Power Up Your Play

Game with confidence thanks to Windows 11 Pro and the raw horsepower of the 2024 Strix G16. Powered by an Intel Core i9-14900HX 24-Core processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 GPU, be ready to dominate the competition in all of the latest games. Backed up with a dedicated MUX Switch and NVIDIA Advanced Optimus, the Strix G16 unlocks the true potential of its hardware. With PCIe Gen4 x4 SSD storage and 32GB of 5600 MHz DDR5 RAM, large game libraries, and intense multitasking sessions are a breeze for this gaming machine.

Power, Meet Efficiency

Power through any game or project with an Intel Core i9 14900HX 24-Core processor, featuring up to a 65W TDP and a hybrid architecture built from the ground up for Windows 11 Pro. With up to 8 Performance-cores and 16 Efficient-cores and Intel's latest Application Optimization technology increasing frames rates to up to 40% in supported titles, AAA gaming is flawless and streaming is effortless.

GPU Power Unleashed

Top-tier components require power, especially when it comes to maximizing your GPU's performance. Powered by NVIDIA DLSS 3, ultra-efficient Ada Lovelace arch, and Max-Q Technologies, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU is fully unleashed.

NVIDIA Advanced Optimus

With NVIDIA Advanced Optimus, the laptop can automatically route frames from the discrete GPU directly to the display using a MUX switch, bypassing the integrated graphics. This pathing improves performance 5-10% compared to machines without a MUX Switch, making sure you get the absolute best gaming experience, all without needing touch a single button. This automatic switching also preserves your machine's battery life, as it can dynamically transition between the high power discrete GPU and the lower power integrated GPU. No matter what you're doing, your machine will switch to the most optimized mode without you having to lift a finger.

Blazing Fast DDR5 Memory

The Strix G16 leverages 5600 MHz DDR5 memory modules with 17% faster speeds than the 4800 MHz kits. This ultra-fast memory makes all aspects of the laptop feel snappy, from intense gaming to light web browsing.

Better, Faster, Stronger

Take on even the largest projects with confidence and a PCIe 4.0 x4 SSD. With raw throughput of up to 7000 MB/s, massive files and large games will load in the blink of an eye.

Cooling

ROG Intelligent Cooling

To accommodate such powerful components, the Strix G16's chassis and motherboard were both designed to accommodate ASUS' high-performance, full-width heat sink, whose fins were moved even closer to the exhaust vents for more efficient cooling. The full-width heat sink is built from three different sections, surrounding the motherboard with densely-packed fins for a total surface area of 174,183mm². This design maximizes the available pathing for hot air to escape the machine and drastically increases overall airflow.

Finally, most gaming laptops have a dual fan cooling system, but the G16 was able to push the performance envelope even further with the introduction of a third fan that helps keep the GPU and VRAM cool. Paired with seven heatpipes, the G16's cooling system is a marvel of engineering.

Full-Surround Vents

Hot air needs somewhere to go, so ASUS redesigned the G16's exhaust vents to give it the best flow possible. In addition to making the entire rear of the machine an exhaust vent, the G 16 retains its side vents, giving it ample opportunity to move hot air out of the system. ASUS even moved the heat sinks closer to the vents themselves, giving hot air a straight-line path out of the machine so any recirculation is avoided.

Full-Width Heat Sink

The G16 features 374 heat sink fins, with each stack lined with thin copper as slim as 0.1mm. This allows for higher density and lower air resistance, providing a total of 174,183mm² of surface area - an increase of 71.26% from the 2022 Strix G15. The improved full-width design is double the size of a typical laptop heat sink and covers the entire rear of the machine.

Tri-Fan Technology

At the heart of every great laptop is a great cooling solution. ASUS' Tri-Fan Technology directs air through precisely calculated cutouts in the chassis, sending airflow directly towards internal components to keep them cool in all conditions. A third auxiliary fan also helps to send additional heat from the GPU directly to the heat sinks, keeping the machine cool during long video renders or gaming sessions.

Up to 7 Comprehensive Heatpipes

The Strix G16's comprehensive thermal design includes an extended heat spreader that absorbs he
